While this Minervois is theoretically fresher & lighter abv, than most, there’s something about the fruit profile that just doesn’t work for me. But a QPR for those that gravitate towards big red fruits..

Rich and chewy and that high toned Asian spice thing from the languedoc villages. Wonderful. 2019

Very good bottle that gave aromas and flavors of razor sharp fruit, dried herbs, underbrush, black tea. Med body, med tannin, high acid, and a great finish. Had with flank steak, it perfectly complimented and elevated the meal. Carignan really shines bright here.

Incredible, classic flavor. Crisp and sharp. Felt like drinking in another era.
